Christmas Poem
The time draws near the birth of
Christ:
The moon is hid; the night is
still;
The Christmas bells from hill*
to hill
Answer each other in the mist.
Four voices of four hamlets
round,
From far and near, on mead
and moor,
Swell out and fail, as if a door
Were shut between me and the
•sound.
Each voice four changes on the
wind.
That now dilate, and now de
crease,
Peace and good-will, good-will
and peace,
Peace and good-will, to all man
kind.
—Tennyson.

a grotto 18 feet high, made of Sar
dinian cork. They had a system of
